What's inside

Syllabus

Introduction to designing infrastructure and managing migrations with Azure.
In this lesson we will be covering services that allow for high availability, what patterns we should use to design as we move an on premise to the cloud, and network security and design.

In this lesson, we will learn about recovery plan objectives, what services we can use to recover our sites, and what types of service items can be backed up in Azure.
In this lesson, we will cover how to analyze your on-premise system to determine the cost of migration, create and migration plan, and then implement the migration from on-premise to the cloud.
In this lesson, we will be discussing the ARM Templates to deploy infrastructure as code, what tools there are to configure management, and Azure Blueprints.
Take an on-premises environment, plan its move to the Azure cloud, and then execute that migration!
